17th Annual Milwaukee Post Holiday Networking Event | TMA Chicago/Midwest

For the seventeenth year, TMA’s Milwaukee Program Committee invites members, guests, spouses and significant others to a very special evening of networking, friendship and fun at one of Milwaukee’s premier venues, the Grain Exchange Room (located in the Mackie Building).  The Mackie and Mitchell buildings have been described as “Two of the world’s most ebullient office buildings of the 1870s.”  The Mackie Building-originally known as the Chamber of Commerce Building-is perhaps Milwaukee’s signature architectural icon, a structure that reflects the city’s fascinating origins.  In the 1860s, the Grain Exchange invented and utilized the first trading pit in the entire world, an octagonal pit that was supplanted later in the Mackie building and duplicated in exchanges around the world.  The TMA reception will occur – on that same Grain Exchange floor where a hundred years ago men haggled over the food that fueled the world!
